Development of Energy Efficient Routing Techniques in WSN

A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) consists of sensor nodes, which are distributed over the field of interest. Low-cost sensor nodes spur the proliferation of WSN in a large number of applicationsThe main objective of this book is to enhance the lifetime of WSN, which can be done by efficiently utilizing the energy of the nodes.Optimal Deployment Algorithm (ODA) is a technique for the deployment of nodes and coverage enhancement in the sensor field. Two Layered Heterogeneity (TLH) presents a static routing scheme based on the heterogeneity of sensor nodes, where heterogeneous nodes (in context of energy) are cluster heads (CH) and rest nodes are member nodes. In addition, a routing scheme based on the mobility of the nodes has been proposed and compared with its static counterpart. A robust and scalable full Binary Tree Structure-based Routing scheme has also been proposed. A grid-based routing scheme (VTGDRA), which partitions the network into various isolated grids (based on the number of deployed nodes) has also been proposed, in which data transmission follows MST link connectivity between communicating nodes of the network.
